New receiver: KU sophomore Angus Quigley played extensively Sunday, but not where you might think.

A former running back, Quigley spent the whole day lined up at receiver for the White team. He had two catches for 17 yards.

“We like the development of our wide-receiver group, but we’re not sure about the depth of it,” KU coach Mark Mangino said. “Angus is a big, strong fast guy with good range and very good hands.

“I think that’s the way it’s going to play out. He can do it.”

Quigley, who missed all of last season because of a thigh injury, is close to full health.

“He hasn’t missed any work,” Mangino said. “He’s pretty close to 100 percent. If he’s not, he’s 95.”

¢ Injury update: Two wide receivers were unable to play Sunday. Junior Dexton Fields is out because of an injury suffered in practice Friday, while freshman Tertavian Ingram has missed most of spring because of an undisclosed setback.

Fields’ injury isn’t serious, though Ingram’s kept him out of uniform Sunday. Mangino said Ingram would be ready for the fall.

“We feel bad for him, because he’s on track to be a really good player for us,” Mangino said, “and he’s been derailed.”

Two other impact players were at less than 100 percent for the scrimmage. Running back Jake Sharp, who had seven rushes for 38 yards, played through a slight injury when he “turned his foot” on a rough practice field nearly two weeks ago.

Also, cornerback Aqib Talib tweaked his right hamstring during the game Sunday and didn’t return.

“Nothing major,” Talib said. “In about a week I’ll be back full speed.”

¢ A few quirks: What was revealed of KU’s new offense under coordinator Ed Warinner wasn’t too dramatic, though there were some unfamiliar plays and formations run Sunday.

One of the most noticeable was a formation with four receivers on the left side in the shape of a diamond during the first half.

It was similar to a setup the University of Houston ran a few times against KU in the Fort Worth Bowl in 2005.

¢ Not expected back: Sophomore defensive end Jason Thompson did not practice with the team this spring, and Mangino said he doesn’t expect him to return.

Thompson was ticketed for a red shirt in 2006, but ended up having it pulled to play in three Big 12 games. He collected two tackles.
